On my machine I used apache2 (apr 0.9.3) with a BSD-Like layout with
stow. Therefore the
apr-config and apu-config in /usr/local/bin are not actual files but
symbolic links to the actual script shell which are locate "somewhere
else" (/usr/local/stow/apache2/httpd-2.0.45/bin actually). In this
particular configuration, the ap[ur]-config --link-* commands give a
wrong path with or without realpath installed :
$ apr-config --link-ld
-L/usr/local/bin -lapr-0
$ apr-config --link-libtool
/usr/local/bin/libapr-0.la
This is because the "thisdir" variable contains /usr/local/bin so the
scripts consider apr-config to be in a "build" location rather than
"installed".
The following patches correct this problem when the realpath command is
installed.
